Techstination feature for Monday, July 6, 2015

The problem with great big phones. I’m Fred Fishkin with technology BootCamp, a report on gadgets and gear. Whether it’s the iPhone 6 plus, the Galaxy Note 4, the Nexus 6….or one of the other giant phones available…the problem for many folks is how do comfortably carry one around. Absent a handbag, they don’t fit very comfortably into most pockets. That’s where Scottevest can help. The company has been making a line of tech-enabled clothing and outerwear for years that have not only lots of pockets for carrying the latest gadgets, but many of those pockets are big enough for oversized phones and even tablets. CEO Scott Jordan….

“We design things for the iPhone 6 plus and tablets as well. An ability to have all your electronic devices on your person wherever you go.”

For instance, there’s a sport jacket with 24 pockets and Scottevest has launched an Indiegogo campaign for a smart fleece jacket with 19 pockets.
